Abstract:
A house for everything is a flexible construction, one described by its responsiveness to community needs: past, present, and future.
The site, located in Vatero, Greece, consists of an existing vacant structure seeking reuse. In mimicking the development of a community, this house celebrates the evolution of a structure over time. A careful structure, designed for adaptation and coexistence.
With a dedicated group of community members constantly bringing attention to spaces that are needed or no longer required, the structure becomes a house for everything.
